Tube Cleaning Services by Hydro Jetting / Lancing | AIMMS Group

AIMMS Group provides professional Tube Cleaning Services designed to restore optimal performance, extend equipment life, and ensure compliance with operational and safety standards across offshore platforms, power plants, refineries, desalination/RO plants, and water treatment facilities.

Efficient heat transfer and uninterrupted fluid flow are critical for the performance and safety of marine, offshore, and industrial systems. Over time, tubes inside heat exchangers, condensers, boilers, and coolers accumulate fouling, scale, sludge, marine growth, and corrosion deposits—leading to reduced efficiency, increased fuel consumption, and potential system failure.

What Is Tube Cleaning Using Hydro Jetting / Lancing?

Tube cleaning is a specialized maintenance process that removes internal deposits from tubes used in:

  • Heat exchangers

  • Condensers

  • Shell & tube coolers

  • Boilers

  • Chillers

  • Cargo oil heaters and coolers

Regular tube cleaning ensures:

  • Maximum heat transfer efficiency

  • Reduced pressure drop

  • Lower energy and fuel consumption

  • Prevention of corrosion under deposits (CUD)

  • Extended equipment lifespan

  • Reduced need for retubing

Why Tube Cleaning Is Critical for Marine & Offshore Assets

In marine and offshore environments, tube systems are constantly exposed to:

  • Seawater fouling and marine growth

  • Salt deposits and scaling

  • Oil sludge and chemical residues

  • Sediment and rust accumulation

If left untreated, these issues can result in:

  • Overheating of engines and auxiliary systems

  • Reduced cooling efficiency

  • Increased operational costs

  • Unplanned downtime and breakdowns

  • Costly repairs or tube replacement
